13 V peak AC at 3 MHz and above.
Based on sinusoidal or DC input signal. The maximum viewable signal while DC coupled is ±50 V offset
±5 V/div at 4 divisions, or 70 V. AC coupling allows measuring signals on a DC level up to 300 V. For
nonsinusoidal waveforms, peak value must be less than 450 V. Excursions above 300 V should be less
than 100 ms in duration, and the duty factor is limited to < 44%. The RMS signal level must be limited to
300 V. If these values are exceeded, damage to the instrument may result.

Displayed vertically with 25 digitization levels per division, 10 divisions dynamic range.
2 mV/div setting is generated by digital multiplication and the resolution is reduced. Given 100 levels
available, the resolution is >6.5 bits.
Sensitivity Range2 m V/div to 5 V/div in 1-2-5 sequence with the probe attenuation set to 1X.
Display Gain Variable
The Display Gain Variable function allows the user to vary the vertical display gain continuously over the
full range.
Resolution is that of the coarse gain from which these data are constructed. Fine gain values (for
instance 120 mV/div) are acquired at the next higher coarse gain setting (in this case 200 mV/div).
The Display Gain Variable is achieved by digital multiplication of the data to obtain the settings between
the 1-2-5 gain settings.
Hard copy outputs to printer will be exactly the same as seen on screen even when the Display Gain
Variable is used.
However, WAVEFORM DATA obtained through the I/O interface is limited to the 1-2-5 gain settings.

No automatic probe interface is provided, so you must verify that the settings match the probe
characteristics. The probe check function allows setting of the proper attenuation for voltage probes.

AC, DC, Noise Reject, High Frequency Reject, Low Frequency RejectTrigger Coupling
The External Trigger path does not have a DC blocking capacitor ahead of the trigger input circuit. The
rolloff associated with AC coupling happens after the input circuit. When attempting to trigger on an AC
signal that has a DC offset, care must be used to avoid overloading the input of the External Trigger
circuit. For signals that have a large DC offset, using Channel 1 or Channel 2 (and Channel 3 or Channel
4 for the TBS1154, TBS1104, and TBS1064) with AC coupling is preferred.

All pulses, even from the most stable sources, have some amount of jitter. To avoid disqualifying pulses
that are intended to qualify but are not absolutely c orrect values, we provide an arbitrary guardband. Any
measured pulse width within the guardband will qualify. If you are looking for pulse width differences that
are smaller than the guardband width, offsetting the center should allow discriminating differences down
to the guardband accuracy.

All pulses, even from the most stable sources, have some amount of jitter. To avoid disqualifying pulses
that are intended to qualify but are not absolutely c orrect values, we provide an arbitrary guardband. Any
measured pulse width outside the guardband will qualify. If you are looking for pulse width differences
that are smaller than the guardband width, offsetting the center should allow discriminating differences
down to the guardband accuracy. Not equal has slightly better ability to deal with small pulse widths
than equal. T he accuracy is not better.
Equal: The oscilloscope triggers when the trailing edge of the pulse crosses the trigger level.
Not Equal: If the pulse is narrower than the specified width, the trigger point is the trailing edge. Otherwise,
the oscilloscope triggers when a pulse continues longer than the time specified as the Pulse Width.
Less than: The trigger point is the trailing edge.
Greater than (also called the time out trigger): The oscilloscope triggers when a pulse continues longer
than the time specified as the Pulse Width.
This provides a highly accurate means of identifyi ng the frequency of trigger signals. Since averaging
takes place over a longer time span, the number of stable digits is improved over the automatic
measurement of the same type.

the attenuators are duplicated. Most of the other aspects of the circuitry remain
unchanged.
Signals from the channel 1 and channel 2 and other input connectors pass through
attenuators and an AC-coupling switch to the amplifier ASIC. The Ext Trig input

system oscillator. Digitized acquisition samples are received by the display
ASIC and stored in DRAM. Once data are received by the display ASIC, various
corrections are applied, display rasterization is performed, and the waveform is
placed in a display buffer. At the same time, the waveform is read from the display
buffers and written to the LCD. Additional circuitry in the display ASIC supports
scanning th
clock, and performing various memory ma pping tasks required by all elementary
microprocessor based systems. In a 4–channel system, the two display ASICs are
interconnected so that one ASIC can provide display information for the second.
The processing and display system handles some of the computational tasks.
Other tasks are performed by the processor system. Since a ll array processing
is performed in the processing and display system, no computations can be
performed that involve data from two different channel sets. Thus, subtracting
channel 3 data from channel 2 is prohibited. Channel 1 and Channel 2 data may
be combined in all of the supported ways.
BNC connectors are mounted on the Main board for all signal inputs. The signal

Main Board Power
Power Supply
The Ext Trig channel is processed on the chain containing the highest numbered
normal input channel.
To support various functions on the Main board, several secondary power sup
are generated. For the amplifier and acquisition ASICs, the Main board creates a
+2.5 V and -2.5 V supply. The +2.5 V supply is derived from the +3.3 V logic
supply. The -2.5 V supply is derived from the -4 V supply. One three-terminal
regulator provides +5 V for internal uses. A second three-terminal regulator
provides USB power to preclude USB faults from seriously disrupting operation
of the oscilloscope.
The main power supply module for these oscilloscopes is a wide input range
universal supply. It can provide about 25 W of power for the oscilloscope, while
allowing the input to run from about 90 V to 264 V. Input frequency ranges from
47 Hz to 440 Hz, which allows operation in virtually all countries in the world and
in several o ff-grid environments, such as power on military aircraft.
The secondary supplies from the power supply and the approximate current draws
are listed in a table with the associated connector pins on J101. (See Table 6-5.)

For the encoders, some amount of debouncing occurs inside the front-panel IC.
All key debouncing is handled in the display FPGA on the Main board.
The LEDs are controlled by latching the value of the Channel 1 - 2 front-panel

The Front-Panel board of the 4-channel units is effectively two panels in parallel.
The left side of the board is largely handled by the display FPGA for channels

The results of this test and the DC Gain Accuracy test together define the DC
Measurement Accuracy of the oscilloscope. The DC Measurement Accuracy
specification encompasses two different ranges of operation over two different
attenuator settings.
DC Gain Accuracy: Identifies errors, mostly from the A/D converter,
when the vertical position (known as offset in these oscilloscopes) is set to
0 divisions (or a grounded input will show screen center)
Vertical Position Accuracy: Identifies errors, mostly from the position control,
made when the vertical position is set to a non-zero value
The two attenuator settings operate identically, so verification of the attenuation
range from -1.8 V to 1.8 V also verifies the attenuation range of -45 V to 45 V.

The adjustment procedure consists of 70 steps for the 2-channel oscilloscope and
106 steps for the 4-channel model. Each step requires an external voltage source
for new calibration constants.
Before performing the adjustment procedure, warm up the oscilloscope for at least
ten minutes in an ambient tempe rature between 20 °C and 30 °C. Adjustments
performed before warm up or outside this temperature range may result in poor
performance.

Probe Comp Output
When the oscill
oscope is on and operating properly, the Probe Comp output
should generate a square wave, approximately 5 V in amplitude, at a 1 kHz
frequency. Use the oscilloscope and use a 10X TPP0101 or TPP0201 probe to
probe this output.
As shown in the following table, there are two cases of defects. Either the 1 kHz
signal is on and the power supply and Main board are both active and functionally
capable of d
oing acquisition, or one of those two modules is not performing
correctly. While many different possible frequencies exist, all involve detected
failures on the Main board due to Main board failure or power supply failure.

3. If all of the voltages are present, th e Main board is probably defective.
Replace it.
4. If all or some of the voltages are missing, turn off the oscilloscope and
disconnect the cable at connector J101 on the Main board module.
5. Turn on the oscilloscope and check the voltages at the loose end of the cable
disconnected from J101, checking for the same voltages as in step 2.
6. If all of the voltages are missing, check the line fuse on the power supply
module. If the fuse is defective, replace the power supply module.
7. If the fuse is okay, and all or some of the voltages are m issing, the power
supply module is probably defective. Replace it.
